A wagon you never see, a full restoration on an already solid car and a price less than ten grand make this 1963 Buick Special Deluxe station wagon one of our favorite finds. Found on Ebay with a BIN of $9,995, this wagon was born and raised in California where it underwent a complete mechanical and body restoration in 2005 after being purchased from it’s original owner. Extensive photos of the car can be seen at Flickr, including a few restoration photos. Service and repair records going back to 1976 from Bill Murphy Buick in Culver City are included.
Since the restoration was completed the car has been driven approximately 2,500 trouble free miles. The 215 aluminum V8 is described as smooth and powerful. The undercarriage is a testament to it’s California roots with no evidence of ever being exposed to the Winter Elements.
Priced at half of what the owners have invested, and a having a curiosity factor that is sure to draw plenty of interest wherever it is seen, this wagon looks to be a great buy for any wagon enthusiast.

Hi, This was my first car!!! I now wish i had not gotten rid of it since it really is a cute wagon. unfortunately mine was rusting pretty badly and was hit twice by poor drivers 🙁 Too bad i didn’t see that this was for sale recently, i would have seriously considered buying it !! Thanks for sharing these pics.. Brings back many memories….

This is one of 3 left on the face of the earth! I own one all stock body, with all original moldings, and windows and headlamps, with 500 CID, and double tube chassis, 1,200 hp, and worth 250,000 !! Try and find 3 more ??? I know of one in a junk yard ? This one! And mine, I’ve been looking for a spare body, but to no avail?? For 10 years, nice job, but that car would sell for much much more, mine is insured for 300,000 ??

We had a Buick wagon like this back in ’63 to the early ’70s that was blue inside and out with a white roof. Loved that car! Everyone in the family rode in that car at one time or another. Thanks for sharing these great pics and bringing back some memories. I check eBay regularly but missed this one.

My parents had one of these, white over medium blue with a blue interior, that I loved! I was heartbroken when it was sold.
